Originally posted by pentaxmz Well, even with the extra sealing, I am not sure I would test this outright; I would recommend coverage as usual. I am sure you are aware that one cannot take a good picture if the lens is wet.
I kinda like this one by hooppjs :
Reminds me of looking out a window, and seeing good weather outside. (And as I understod it, he was very happy with the effect of the droplets too)

Regarding sealing, I’ve tested my K10 in extreme weather, had no problems.
And I would say that my 50/1.2 lens, has a beautiful rendering in low light. (A Pro friend of mine, using the Eos 5D; commended particularly on my 50/1.2 images at dusk in Kuala Lumpur, compared to some with my A-series 35/2.8 lens. He could easily spot the ones made with the fifty.)
So I would say that you can get some pretty good Image Quality in low light from Pentax. The super clean plastic look from high Iso on Canon, is not to my liking. I would much prefer the Nikon models instead.
(Also the trouble for me with C&N is that I cannot use a fast fifty at wide aperture; Iso 3200 and a shutter speed of 1/4 of a second).
Either way, I really don’t care much. Roentarre / James has a big selection in both Canon and Pentax. His Canon cameras don’t stop him from using his Pentax gear. Many simply buy Pentax because of the lenses.
Originally posted by séamuis I fail to see how Olympus falls into that category based on the cameras you are comparing. if anything it would be canon, nikon & sony. I also fail to see why you are even comparing your K20D with the other cameras after you have made a purchase. excuse me if I am incorrect but I get the feeling you are more interested in the technology and the gadgets than you are photography. I know that's only an assumption, but thats the feeling I get reading your posts. particularly since you are new here. I just do not see the point in continuously looking at your equipment and comparing it to other brands.
Exactly, lately I’ve resided in this subforum, as I’ve gotten increasingly tired of the technicality discussions at DPr.
As my Z-1P had red veil LED focus assist light in the camera, I seldom encountered AF problems in low light.
